...in WC3. Usually, I can take down the big boys without too much trouble. Bhantkara, Fralthi II are easy prey for me. When it comes to the Tiny stuff, I start getting in trouble. A Light destroyer isn't too tough, but a heavy is hell, especially in the Excalibur where you get them the most. And most of all, the one ship I hate so much, that I need my Wingman to take it down for me-- The Corvette. Yes, 4 laser turrets and a mass driver ten to send me home crying. In a Longbow or TBolt I can waste them fairly easily with a simple Torpedo- a Luxury the Hellcat and Arrow don't have. Anyone have an idea on how to take these things down? Sometimes, If I can take out the Mass Driver Turret, I can put myself in a tiny little nook if I'm in the Arrow where it's completely unprotected spot. Just hammer away. The problem with that is getting into position. My Front armor is definatly going down, and I'll be shredded after I get into place. I've tried sliding across the top (Mass Driver can't shoot you there), But the Laser turrets on top can take even my Excalibur down in a few seconds.
Sliding is also a Luxury the Hellcat doesnt have. If I can even get the shots in before the turrets rip me up to take out a turret, I'll be shaken up with heavy damage and unable to make another run. Considering that these little beasties are in almost all the missions in WC3, it's a pretty bad thing not to know how to defang. I can't take out turrets at long range, my stick is too sensitive. That leaves torps as my only option. something I'd rather save for the Fralthi II or Heavy Destroyer that Lies ahead. So how do you take these things down? My Wingman can usually handle two before it gets a little too hot for them, so that usually leaves me to handle at least 1 per mission(These things are EVERYWHERE). I'd like a solution without missiles, if possible, to these pests.
